  • Delete. Seems to be written specifically to point up the non-notability of its subject. BTLizard 12:00, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment: I disagree; The Opening of Misty Beethoven was one of the more noted adult films of its time. It didn't get nearly the mainstream press coverage of the bans on Deep Throat, but it was far more notable than a typical porn quickie of that era. I can't search for attributable sources from work, but mainstream media probably carried the speculation listed in the article, so neutral at this time. Barno 15:17, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
  • I've read attributable articles in the past which cited this movie and this actress in the way described by Dekkappai, which shows more notability than most of the actresses than have appeared in a hundred shot-on-video quickies. Changing to merge to the movie title's article, unless we find citations which give enough info to support a standalone article for Ms. Beaudant. Barno 13:56, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge into The Opening of Misty Beethoven. Short article doesn't stand alone, but could be useful as a paragraph there. If someone finds sources writing about JB specifically, not just about the film, we can break it out later. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 16:15, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Merge This article has only been up for one month, not enough time for sufficient research into reviews of the time, which, I suspect, will provide more information on the subject. I've already found a mention in contemporary issues of Variety and Playboy. The fact that she appeared in only one film is irrelevant, since number of films has been excluded as a means of establishing notability. The one film in which she appeared is one of the best-known of the "Porno chic" era of US theatrical pornography. She had a leading role in this film and apparently garnered some media attention. For these reasons, I'd first considered a Strong Keep, but the article on this actress will probably never be long enough to be obtrusive at the film article. So Merge it there. If more substantial information is eventually found, recreate the article later. Dekkappai 17:02, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge per AnonEMouse & Dekkappai. Tabercil 21:31, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
